So far, the roadmap McWilliams laid out for 2012 has been extremely accurate. In March, just two days before the market peaked and began its over two-month slide, he warned Next Inning readers that stock prices were peaking and a correction was headed our way. Following this, once the markets bottomed, he predicted we would see prices rally during the July and August earnings season, and rally they did.

With tech earnings season winding down with the final big reports from Dell and HP, Next Inning readers are anxiously awaiting McWilliams' next Strategy Review in which he'll reevaluate his outlook for the balance of the second half and into early 2013.

This week, McWilliams has updated his highly acclaimed "Triple Crown" tech stock portfolio that is specifically designed to deliver higher dividend yield, a lower price-to-earnings ratio multiple and higher growth potential than the S&P500. Since the start of the July earnings season, McWilliams Triple Crown portfolio has returned nearly 60% more profits than the S&P 500. Trial subscribers will receive free access to these reports as well as the entire contents of the Next Inning archives.

His reports have won over readers with their ability to unravel the complexities of the industry and, more importantly, identify which companies are likely to be the winners and losers as technology trends change.
